I posted this info on FB stating that the general public here in Australia have no idea what or how much information gathered about the householder is taken by a JW that knocks on their doors.

New kingdom hall Washington State
by Are you serious inyesterday i drove passed a town a couple of hours from my home and saw this kh under construction.
this is the first new design kh i've seen in washington state even though i would think by now another one or two have been built.

I have a mental picture of religious buildings of all persuasions around the world and this Jehovah`s Witness building has to be the most uninspiring religious building I have ever seen and quite frankly no J.W.kingdom hall has ever had that Spiritual look or feel about it .
None of them have ever inspired Reverence or Holiness about them ,think and compare them to Solomon`s Temple or even the Tabernacle as depicted in the Bible .
Now think and compare Christendoms Churches ,Islams Mosques ,and Jewish Synagogues , even non Christian .religions they all have an awe about them as Holy places that captivates even non believers .
But not Jehovah`s Witness Kingdom halls.They could be just low functioning community halls as far as the general public are concerned .

JWs and Guns.
by blownaway ini was told shooting guns and collecting them was not something a jw should do.
when i lived way up north us it was more of a deer hunting group and so some guns were ok, when i moved to florida it was different.
most people in the hall were not hunters.

It's like claiming people shouldn't have knives because they are like swords / weapons - comes down to how you use 'em.
I like that
Apparently Jehovah God had no problem with the Israelite`s carrying swords and committing genocide among their neighbors slaughtering man woman and child with the sword and told not to feel sorry for them, a recurrent occurrence in the Hebrew Scriptures (N.T)
Mat.10:34 "Jesus came to put a sword on the earth"
Wasn`t it Jehovah God who invented the sword Gen.3:24 ?
Imagine if they had have had guns in those days ?

This video should be shared by all on this site with whatever social media we use to make as many people as possible aware of how far Watchtower/Jehovah`s Witnesses will go in covering up Child Sexual Abuse in their Organization.
Because that`s what its all about.

Why a Belief or Non Belief in the existence of "A God" or "The God" is Futile {In My Opinion}
by smiddy3 inbecause their are so many different god`s worshiped in the world today and none of them have made themselves known to us in this 21st century for all of mankind to see and verify .. all of the gods worshiped today are from hundreds and even thousands of years ago derived from ancient writings and texts in languages that are no longer in use today.. that of course brings up problems of another sort translating an ancient language into its modern day equivalent.. and nobody is in total agreement that such translations are accurate or correct anyway.. and their is no god coming to the rescue of translators to say which is the right interpretation.
they are mute.. i`m not just talking about christianity/ judaism either, the same goes for all non christian religions too.. its a total cop out to say one must have faith to believe in god .
"faith, belief in religious doctrines divine truth without proof" and no verification from any god christian/islam/judaism or otherwise ..

Proof of God
by MrDantastic ini'm an atheist as i do not see any evidence for the existance of a god.
i encourage critical thinking in everyone and am ready to debate anyone on whether or not there is a god and what that god might be like.

MrDantastic started a topic "Proof of God" 6 days ago challenging people `s beliefs one way or another and we haven`t heard a word from him since and yet we have gone 7 pages in discussion .
What should that tell us ?

Jesus tempted by Satan, real or just a vision.
by pleaseresearch innot with their shunning policy.
me and my brother seldom communicate sadly, but no way would we go anywhere for fear of being seen with an inactive jw for over 10 years.. https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-simplified-march-2016/questions-from-readers/.

Neil Armstrong standing on the moon and looking back at the earth would not be able to see all the kingdoms of the world
Also for Jesus to be tempted by Satan and Jesus having gone along with him shows that after all these thousands of years since Adam Jesus has never shunned Satan .And obviously neither did Jehovah shun Satan all those years .
So if Jehovah and Jesus never shunned their chief adversary what right do the G.B.of Jehovah`s Witnesses have in instructing their members to shun anybody for any petty or even major reason in their view.?
